A Monte Carlo Simulation Of The Robust Rank-Order Test Under Various Population Symmetry Conditions, William T. Mickelson
A Monte Carlo Simulation Of The Robust Rank-Order Test Under Various Population Symmetry Conditions, William T. Mickelson
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
The Type I Error Rate of the Robust Rank Order test under various population symmetry conditions is explored through Monte Carlo simulation. Findings indicate the test has difficulty controlling Type I error under generalized Behrens-Fisher conditions for moderately sized samples.
Robustness Of Dewma Versus Ewma Control Charts To Non-Normal Processes, Saad Saeed Alkahtani
Robustness Of Dewma Versus Ewma Control Charts To Non-Normal Processes, Saad Saeed Alkahtani
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) and double EWMA (DEWMA) control charts were designed under the normality assumption. This study considers various skewed (Gamma) and symmetric non-normal (t) distributions to examine the effect of non-normality on the average run length (ARL) performance of EWMA and DEWMA. ARL performances were investigated and compared using Monte Carlo simulations. Results show that DEWMA charts can be designed to be robust to non-normality, that the ARL performances of EWMA and DEWMA charts were more robust to t distributions and DEWMA was more robust to non-normality for larger values of the smoothing parameter.
